Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 3, 2024, CV Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“Streeterville”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to Streeterville a Secured Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $1,188,500 (the “Note”). The Note carries an original issuance discount of $283,500 and the Company agreed to pay $5,000 to Streeterville to cover legal fees, each of which were deducted from the proceeds of the Note received by the Company which resulted in a purchase price received by the Company of $900,000 (the “Purchase Price”).
The unpaid amount of the Note, any interest, fees, charges and late fees accrued shall be due and payable in twelve months from July 3, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company is required to make weekly repayments to Streeterville of $22,855.77. The Company can pay all or any portion of the outstanding balance earlier than it is due without penalty. In the event the Company repays the Note in full on or before December 31, 2024, the Company will receive a $75,000 discount from the outstanding balance. The Note is secured by all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a Security Agreement entered into with Streeterville on July 3, 2024 (the “Security Agreement”). No interest will accrue on the Note unless and until an occurrence of an Event of Default (as discussed below).
The Note provides for customary events of default (each as defined in the Note, an "Event of Default"), including, among other things, the event of nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, a representation or warranty proving to have been incorrect when made, failure to perform or observe covenants within a specified cure period, a cross-default to certain other indebtedness and material agreements of the Company, and the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or similar event affecting the Company. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is deemed a “Major Trigger Event” as defined in the Note, Streeterville may increase the outstanding balance of the Note by 20%, and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is deemed a “Minor Trigger Event” as defined in the Note, Streeterville may increase the outstanding balance of the Note by 5%. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Streeterville may declare all amounts owed under the Note immediately due and payable. In addition, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, upon the election of Streeterville, interest shall begin accruing on the outstanding balance of the Note from the date of the Event of Default equal to the lesser of 22% per annum and the maximum rate allowable under law.
The preceding descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, Note and Security Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Purchase Agreement, Note, and Security Agreement, copies of which are filed as exhibits to this report and are incorporated by reference herein.
